Gibraltar A23-5-G Spoked Offset Handwheel 5 Inch Chrome

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR A23-5-G is a spoked offset handwheel with a chrome-plated finish, designed for manual valve and machine control applications. The offset spoke configuration allows the operator to turn the wheel in confined spaces where a standard centered hub would be obstructed. With a 5-inch handle diameter, 3 spokes, and a 1/4-20 threaded bore, this handwheel delivers a secure grip and positive control over the connected valve stem or shaft. The iron hub provides durability under repeated use. It weighs 1.92 pounds and is suited for industrial, plumbing, and mechanical equipment installations.

This handwheel is used in residential and commercial settings wherever manual control of valves, pumps, or mechanical assemblies is required. The offset design is particularly useful on valves mounted close to walls, panels, or adjacent equipment where clearance is limited. Trades including plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical technicians install this style of handwheel as an OEM replacement or upgrade on gate valves, globe valves, and similar manually operated components.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified mechanical technician. Shut off the associated valve or system and depressurize the line before removing the existing handwheel. Confirm bore diameter and thread size match the valve stem before installation. Secure the handwheel per the valve manufacturer specifications to prevent slippage under torque.
